37 wheel question

[WR1]

Yes, topic discussed several times but asking about my specific situation. Thanks in advance.

I do more off roading than most people I’m guessing - Moab/AZ rocks and Minor Baja Type Stuff.

Moving to 37 x 12.5 x 17 on a 2023 Badlands Sasquatch. So far I have Accu Tune Ride coil over level 3 kit and JKS Max Tire kit installed. Coil over gained 2.5” front and 1” rear (both are now 41” from ground to center of fender guard so I’m riding level)

Question - can I use factory wheels for 37s ? If aftermarket is needed/required what am I looking for with offset and backspace etc. I do not want tires sticking outside of fenders.

Looking at BFG AT KO2 or 3 or General Grabber X3 in 37 x 12 x 17

Which wheel brands are known for actual off-roading ??

Any help is appreciated, really don’t know much about wheel requirement's in above situation.

Get ya some aftermarket 17x8.5" wheels with 0 offset and 4.75" BS
This is what it will look like.
My tires are the newly released Toyo Open Country R/T Pros 37x12.50-17
For the front tires, you will have to unbolt the front crash bars and remove them, otherwise the front tires will rub against them.

To use the factory wheels, 1.25” wheel spacers do the trick nicely for this situation. I’ve run this same setup along with a couple of friends. We have wheeled them hard. One friend even has the factory beadlock rings.

You have a great suspension setup for 37”…Stock Sasquatch wheels will work fine for 37” tires with 3/4” or more spacers…aftermarket wheels (17x8.5 or 9.0) should be less than +12 offset with most folks using 0 offset…I have Icon pro wheels for their simple “beadlock” system but lots of folks like method wheels too. good luck!

Thanks - crash bars were removed with JKS Max Tire kit so I’m good to go there

I use Method Beadgrip wheels.

12.5 with no poke. Yeah, possible with SAS, very very hard without it though. Those SAS fender flares stick out an extra 2” covering up the extra poke. If you want it tucked inside on non-SAS flairs not sure you could do it without either an extreme amount of lift or a narrower wheel.

SAS Goodyears on SAS wheels even poke out about an inch on non-SAS fender flairs, and that’s a +33 offset.
